QC Kinetix West Palm Beach, FL

Dr. Sander Fernandez is the Medical Director of the South Florida region QC Kinetix clinics. He is a board-certified family medicine physician who specializes in regenerative medicine and non-surgical pain management. He obtained his Doctor of Medicine degree from St. Matthew’s University School of Medicine in 2011 and completed his residency training in Family Medicine at East Carolina University/Vidant Medical Center in 2014. (He also obtained a Bachelor of Science degree from Florida International University in 2006, as well as a Master’s in Healthcare Administration from Davenport University in 2014.) Dr. Fernandez has always had a passion for sports medicine and musculoskeletal pathology. Since his early years practicing sports and being surround by his father (former head coach of a national swim team), as well as his older brother (former professional Triathlete who sustained multiple injuries from which he struggled to recover), he knew steroids or anti-inflammatories were not the best treatment choices. He also knew that physical therapy had his limitations. Throughout his education, Dr. Fernandez has completed multiple CME courses and trainings with various organizations to continue advancing his knowledge and helping his patients with additional therapeutic options. Over the past 5 years, his practice has been focused on physical medicine and rehabilitation, non-surgical regenerative medicine, and clinical research. Witnessing so many patients take back their lives and be functional again through these treatments has been a very gratifying experience. When he’s not busy treating patients, Dr. Fernandez loves going on adventures with his wife and children, serving on mission trips with his church, training for Triathlons, and playing golf and tennis.

Milton Menco is a certified PA (physician assistant) born in Colombia.
